It seems to me that getting the adventurous to use the cvs version without debug info won't be very useful. "I get a core dump" doesn't help much. So, I'd suggest that you should turn off optimization and turn on debugging. Ditto with the assertions. Assertions are triggered by a logic fault. We want them to abort because we want to write the code correctly. -- Angus
